HIS LIFE IS OUR HISTORY
2005/2/18
形式:ハードカバー
Coming to the United States from Ireland, the 14-year-old John Wallace Crawford brought a brother and two sisters to join their parents who had left Ireland two years earlier and made a home in Minersville, Pennsylvania.
Shortly after his arrival, young John went to work in the coal mines to help support his family. There, he earned the princely sum of $1.75 per week. This was an inauspicious beginning for the boy who would be known as Captain Jack Crawford, co-star of Buffalo Bill Cody and toast of New York City.
Jack Crawford was a poet, a scout and a gifted showman who lived during exciting times in America. A member of the Forty-eighth Pennsylvania volunteers, he was in the thick of battle during the final days of the Civil War. Later, he traversed the Black Hills of the Dakotas interviewing miners for a newspaper, and was appointed chief of scouts of the Black Hills Rangers, a group engaged in protecting miners from angry Sioux. After Custer's death, Crawford became a military scout, participating in "the starvation march" in 1876.
The pages of Jack Crawford's life are chapters in American history, and Darlis Miller recounts it well.

History can be a better read than fiction: Here's an example.
2008/3/9
形式:ハードカバー
Many people rise to prominence during their lives, but their relevance fades and their names are unrecognized in relatively short time. Jack Crawford's was such a life: Crawford's history has become obscure. His adventures ranged from Civil War battlefields to gold rush camps in the Dakotas, the Cariboos of eastern British Columbia, and the Klondike. They included service as a scout in the indian wars of the mid- and southwest, service as a federal law officer who ranged from Mexico to Wisconsin, and mine developer in New Mexico. Through most of this time he had a parallel career as newspaper correspondent, political activist, entertainer, author, and sometime performer with "Buffalo Bill" Cody. Crawford's activity as a communicator brought the West to masses of newspaper readers and attendees of his public appearances, in a time when these were "the media", predating the now-familiar accessibility of electronic communications. Western fiction authors from Buntline to McMurtree have modeled their characters upon people like Crawford. Although his prominence had him rubbing elbows with US Presidents, there hasn't been much historical review of his life prior to this book. Darlis Miller has preserved a fascinating element of Americana in her study of "Captain" Jack Crawford.
